Just received this today. It took my breath away when I opened the package and held it. the picture doesn't do justice to the art work and colors. Thank you my friend for another beautiful piece of art work.

Bri you are outstanding in your work and designs. I bought this for myself and love the red sequin heart on black, it really makes a statement! Love the inner pocket for all those smaller items that tend to get lost in purses, great size to carry my essentials without the weight of larger purses. LOVE! Waiting to see the new items coming out, especially skirts, love the one I have need to add more!

Great little purse, bought for my sister for mother's day. I know she will love it, especially the beading and colors of the purse. What genius and talent! Just adding more, my sister loved this purse, the color, size and design. Great mother's day gift for her. I knew she would like it!

About

*love*

twilight dance designs is my little business since 1993 where I decided my life's path was to create art for a living any way I could. (the name comes from a song my husband wrote)....I have loved art since I could pick up a crayon. My dad was an engineer and master craftsman, and my mom is a seamstress who could make you a dress with her eyes closed. My dad would bring home graph paper and pencils from work and I would just go to town between math, all those little boxes and drawing. When I was 8, I watched a film about Pablo Picasso and I saw an ADULT painting and realized that's what I wanted to be when I grew up. That guy. Bob Ross taught me how to paint trees, and I never went to art school, thankfully. No formal training except a semester's once a week class on printmaking, screen printing and wood block carving at a community college. I learned most on my own. it makes for 99% everything being self-taught and raw. I saved a lot of money- but took a very long time. Music is also my life thanks to my father. I was introduced to everything from Dylan and beyond. I started sewing when I was 18, and sold my clothing in the parking lots of Grateful Dead shows, and music festivals, as well as online. I was a picky lady about everything from my thread to my fabrics to my dyes. If there's one thing my dad taught me, it was always to do a job right, and use the best materials possible. I recycle as much as I can and my love of saving things has taken up a bedroom in our home. Yes. The art has it's own room.
I've always been drawn to mandalas, they come to me like I breathe.
I also dye fabric, paint and draw, sew clothing, and make whatever my head makes up inside. I live at the Jersey Shore with my 2 awesome kids and musician husband and we are both artists making a living off our crafts.
I am a breast cancer survivor, so getting back into making things is a slow and long recovery process due to my dominant arm being permanently disabled from surgery, and 2 nasty conditions called lymphedema and 'cording'. But I forge on, and the healing process through art has been the greatest. It's a long road back- but this is my journey.
I had a few good years of a hiatus, where I stopped selling my goods and focused on raising my kids- then I got cancer and now I'm back. I have been cancer free since November of 2012.
Looking forward to creating more and more as my body heals itself....
